The French war ofice.

The first thing that strikes the English
visitor to the French .sMinistere de la
Gucrre'' il the contrast it presents to the
English war office. The latter is little
squat and dirty double house dozen yards
gack from Pail Mall, resembling in its exte-
rior. both in condition and construction,
D huge rabbit warren. The former is
q magnificent new stone building, with
broad flights of marble steps, filed with
frescoes and paintings, scarlet and gilt
furniture, and suites Of imposing reception
,Ooms leading one into the other through
large mahogany folding doors Into the
last Of these suites was shown TO await
the now famous French minister.
The moment he entered the room one
saw clearly how mistaken is the common
conception of his personality. He is a
brown hair, brown beard, rather a red
face; above all things quiet looking al
most to commonplaceness. His mother
was an Englishwoman, his aunt is living
at Lewes, and except for the slight point
at his beard he himself would be taken
for an Englishman anywhere. He wore
the ordinary French civilians dress of
black frock coat and trousers, with only
the single red spot n his buttonhole.
This, by the way, was also the dress Of
half a dozen generals, who seemed TO per-
form q sort of special duty by being
present about the .ministere. In man
! ners Gen. Boulanger is not more striking
than in appearance. He speaks slowly,
like most soldiers, bat without much
gesture, and without much force either ok
voice or language. Pail Mall Gazette.

An Experiment IN Photography.

The bromide paper, which was first
shown at the Chicago convention of the
photographers of the United States in
1853, Is still merely an experiment, but it
has greatly hurt the business of crayon
artists whose speciality was portrait
making. This injury has been done, not
by the superiority Of the bromide process
over free nand drawing, but by the cheap
ness OF these bromide pictures, and cheap
ness seems to be the one quality that
recommends bromide portraits to the
general public People know so little
about cost, or what constitutes good
picture, that they can gauge their ap-
